I'm here, I'm queer, and I'm full of fear.
The glass is always half full to 18-year-old Trevor Huffman, but it's half full of pee. Thanks to COVID, the 45th President, family trauma, and his first heartbreak, he's no stranger to the downs of life. That's not to say that his life doesn't have its ups too, but they're a little harder to appreciate when you're depressed, anxious, and constantly overthinking things.
And if that's not enough to keep Trevor worried, he just moved into his dorm room at New Halle University to start his freshman year at college, and he's all on his own now. Gulp. What are people going to think of him? What if he doesn't fit in? What if he doesn't make any friends? Armed with his journal, his own insecurities, and a fierce love of music, he's determined to make the most of his time at school. Anything can happen at college, and as scary as that is to Trevor, he doesn't want to let it scare him into staying shut in his room.
The often-untold sequel to the high school coming-of-age story and in the same vein as The Perks of Being a Wallflower and The Catcher in the Rye, A Day at the Theme Park is an unapologetically progressive story about discovery, friendship, finding your place, and dining hall food that sends you running for the bathroom.
